I thought it would be fun to have a sort of wargame with other nations for fun. But instead of a normal skirmish, I'm adding a twist. There will be an "alien artifact" that is very rare and everybody wants, so everybody has to try to get it. So one nation's fleet will start with the artifact, and then the rest need to fight them and each other to try and get the artifact. Once you have the artifact, it is your job to destroy everyone else. If the artifact is destroyed, then the fleet that destroyed the artifact will be immeadiatly disqualified and a new artifact given to a random fleet. The last one standing will obviously have the artifact and win the match. I will be the referee, so, who want's to play?

So a live-fire game of capture the flag?

Basically, but with no losses to your nation in anything but this RP.

Is there a fleet size limit?
Also how will tech differences/tech GM claims be dealt with?
How fragile is the artefact?

Have your whole fleet if you want, no limit there. And tech limits will go to anything off of t.v, movies, comics, books, etc.. and anything you can explain how it works.

Oh and the artifact is pretty strong, as long as it's not caught in any explosions or on an exploding ship then it's fine, so don't worry about accidently dropping it.

So you have to go ship-to-ship to get the artefact?

is the aretefact living?

And I'm in. just have to write up a thing about Warp Points in my tech and another few ship descriptions.

And will the artefact be able to be detected so that it's on a certain ship?

Sounds good, but I'll just watch... I can't match the power of some of the other fleets out there...

All accepted.

Plus go ahead and keep the artifact if you win, it's just a bronze statue of buddha. :p

Ok, go here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=9260671#post9260671) to start the festivities. I've randomly selected(bubble gum) who starts with the artifact and Stellar Nations got it, so go nuts and kill him! By the way, you guys don't need to post your ships arriving at the place or have any intro, just say your all in the same area, kinda like on a game where you just start on the battlefield.

Does the artefact give off any signal or method of tracking it?
Taledonia

Nope, which makes it all the more difficult, so you need to try and board every ship instead of destroying them for risk of destroying the artifact and losing.

Crap, we have to disable, then ship-to-ship every nation that get's the statue.

Was the last attack directed at me or Hakurabi? Could you say the target of all subsequent attacks please.
